50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Independence

“The food was alright. Nothing too special. I did like the bread they served. The service could have been better. The first waitress was good, she directed me to a table. But then I waited for about 15 minutes and another waitress came to my table. And she wasn't as friendly as the first one. Almost seemed a bit rude about me asking questions about the menu. I'll give it 6 months and then I'll return again and see if there are any improvements.“

“Arrived after 3pm for a snack - sooooo many wonderful choices! For our first visit to Ellen's Bakery & Cafe we had bumpy chocolate and golden buttercream (w/sprinkles) cupcakes to share. Each outstanding! The buttercream used on both was the most perfect creamy, sweet blend. And the deep chocolate coating covering the buttercream bump was our favorite. Both cupcakes were "Best in Class!" We understand that next week the Cafe will be featuring a fresh asparagus salad with a poached egg atop so we'll be back earlier in the day, and maybe for breakfast, too! Next visit, when we are heading straight home right afterwards, we'll be taking Ellen's made-in-store butter pecan ice cream with us to try. I understand it's amazing!“

“Cute little place in downtown Pontiac. Loved the NY theme with the colorful lights. Excited to go back when it's warm out so we can check out the rooftop. Definitely enjoyed the music videos playing on all screens. Bartenders were extremely nice and attentive. Drinks and food were fairly priced. We loved the chickfilla sandwich. The toppings were fresh and the bun was super soft. Bang bang sauce was perfectly spicy. The famous bowl poutine had a lot of cheese and gravy. The chicken was crunchy. The sandwich and regular size poutine was enough for 2.“

This IS my number (1) Restaurant by far.“

Always improving, always hiring quality help, always a good time.Kid-friendliness: This place caters to kids but it is still definitely a bar. No language restrictions or kids meal specials.

“Friday night! Time to dine out, right. We were in the mood for Italian and specifically, pasta! My girlfriend and I hadn't visited Palazzo Di Bocce and decided to try it out. After checking the restaurant website I called to make 5pm reservations as recommended. We drove over a little before 5pm and arrived in good time. The funny part is that there were only two other people there and the place is huge! None-the-less, we checked in and were seated immediately. We didn't wait five minutes before Cheyenne, our server, took our drink order and provided menus and wine selection information. She was very helpful throughout the evening. We ordered an appetizer of Bruschetta which was tasty and a little different from the same dish at other restaurants. My girlfriend ordered the Carbonara with a house salad and I ordered the Chicken Marsala with a helping of the Mushroom Soup. When I asked Cheyenne about the soup she confidently told me it would be the best I've ever eaten and she was right! It was delicious! I questioned her regarding wine choices, as I'm not very familiar with Italian wines. She suggested a Sangiovese that was pretty good and at a fair price. As we ate, a gentleman (server) would politely remove unwanted dishes from the table. Both meals were very good - although I think the mashed potatoes were out of a box. Frankly, I thought the Carbonara was much better than my Marsala! Following our meal we enjoyed desert and coffee - also very good. The cannoli I had was the best I'd had in years. (The shells are made fresh and not filled until ordered. So, rather than the typical soggy shell, it was nice and crunchy and of exceptional flavor!) The venue began filling up as we enjoyed our meal and the surroundings are beautiful. Service was excellent. We will return I'm sure and include a round of Bocce!“

“Everyone says the same things about this magical place1. They serve you faster then you can order.2. The place may be to clean.Best chips and salsa around. We get them whenever we do taco night with friends.Vegetarian options: Okay my veggies. You'll like this place.“

The staff was helpful, friendly, and attentive. Holly and Ashley are the absolute best. The place was beautiful, I will be using them for future “

“My husband, in-laws and myself just got home from the wild game spotlight dinner with Chef William and Chef Alex. To say it was amazing is an understatement. The food was fantastically perfect and had all the flavors! We look forward to returning so we can try the regular menu! Thank you for allowing us to celebrate in this event with you.“

“Awesome food and great service!“

“Absolutely amazing. We reached out to Italia Gardens at the last minute trying to schedule a luncheon service for 50 people after my brother's funeral service. The ownership and staff went above and beyond to accommodate us at the last minute; provided excellent food and great service. Having never dined there and only going on word of mouth, we rolled the dice. I'm glad we did. Thanks again.“

A great time was had by all! Special shout out to Kira for the absolute best service I've experienced hosting a team outing. Thank you!“

“What an amazing experience!Loved the atmosphere, open layout, large tv's, pull tabs, keno...We ordered the fries which were delicious..The nachos NO JOKE WERE OUT OF THIS WORLD!!!! (Listen I'm a nacho freak) They had so much flavor, crispy chips until the last one. Perfrct amount of each topping.We also ordered the steak quesadillas, which we were unhappy with. The steak seemed to be over cooked and tough. (Hey it happens no biggie)The flavors were great, music was great, staff was fast, efficient and friendly.“

“We are regulars at Stuffed Bun and can’t imagine not spending our Sunday morning with them. The food is always excellent and the staff make us feel like family.

“Excellent food as always, competent help, fast service, no waiting and overall a good worthwhile experience!“

“I had given a raving review to this place until tonight when Miranda started handling things. Our food was cold, cold, cold, and Miranda tried to turn the tables as if it were our fault. Shocking a bit, but her terse defensive manner was the first red flag that she sucked at her job once she was told about the awful experience we had. She was hateful and rude and made excuses and blamed us for their short comings in the kitchen.Did you know that at Billy's Tip-n- Inn YOU'RE expected to make sure everything is okay before you leave? That's what she said. E.g. We should, as patrons, do they're job and make sure things are thoroughly cooked. ?They lost two regular customers.“

“Always awesome, staff and managment. First choice restaurant in white lake .“

“I have truthfully not been here in quite sometime but I have such a positive memory from the last time I ate here. The food, service, timeliness of food served, as well as atmosphere/overall vibe all amazing. Impossible to forget there mac n cheese. Will be going here soon and updating accordingly with pics!Dietary restrictions: They will accommodateParking: Lots of options“

“Stopped in today for the first time to try some bagels and they were amazing! My co workers and I all enjoyed them. We had a half dozen of plain, salt, everything, and cheddar everything bagels (my favorite) They were fresh, the selection was great, and the taste was incredible! The customer service was also wonderful. I can’t wait to try more items off of their menu.“

“The food was good, and the service was outstanding. I had the club sandwich, and my two friends had breakfast items. I would highly recommend this place for a wuick meal at decent prices. Everything also looked really clean, neat, and taken care of. Definely a good place to take the kids out for a hamburger.“

“My family went here for my brother's rehersal dinner. Every interaction my mom had with the restaurant was great. I also had great interaction on the phone and in person when I asked about accommodations and allergy protocols for celiac/gluten-free. When we ordered my daughter's food they were aware, and took it seriously. They communicated well with us. Was able to answer my questions (tortilla chips made in house but shared fryer)... My daughter was able to enjoy a meal with us instead of feeling left out. Definitely recommend.#celiacawarenessDietary restrictions: Df and GF“
